Retrograde motion is the apparent backward movement of a planet as seen from Earth. It results from the different orbital speeds and positions of Earth and the other planet; the planet does not physically reverse its orbit.
All dates use Istanbul time and are shown to the minute. The diagram illustrates orbital relationships, not current positions.

Gestures made out of a wish to be admired may have their sincerity questioned during this process. While Jupiter appears to move retrograde in Leo, this phase is traditionally considered a time to turn toward generosity free of display. Rather than showing greatness outwardly, quietly growing the creative fire in your heart may help.
The wish to do every detail flawlessly may be what's blocking action altogether. While Mars appears to move retrograde in Virgo, some readings link this to a loosening of excessive control in how things function. Letting go of the fear of mistakes and taking a step may carry you further than the rush for perfection.
What you're trying to say may feel incomplete once it's put into words. While Mercury appears to move retrograde in Pisces, this pairing is traditionally linked to dreams and intuition surfacing. Rather than clear sentences, the guidance of an image may be stronger.
A memory you haven't thought about in a long time may come to mind for no clear reason these days. In some readings, this apparent retrograde of Mercury in Cancer is linked to old family conversations and emotional memory rising to the surface. Listening to what you feel may be more accurate during this period.
Starting right away and forcing your way past obstacles may backfire during this period. While Saturn appears to move retrograde in Aries, some traditions link this to a period where raw courage is tested through the filter of time and patience. Rather than trying to break down doors, doing the right preparation may bring more lasting results.
Beneath a topic discussed on the surface, another one that was never voiced may be sitting quietly. In some traditions, this apparent retrograde of Mercury in Scorpio is linked to covered-up matters deepening. The weight of a secret may want to be quietly acknowledged during this period.
Zodiac themes are traditional symbolic interpretations; they make no claim about personal outcomes.
